Pump up the jam
Pump it up
While your feet are stompin’

As you can see in the video, none of the band members have missing fingers.
The reason the band is called “Lost Fingers” is as an hommage to Django Reinhardt.
Django was pretty much the instigator of what is now called “gypsy jazz” - the style the Lost Fingers use in their song remakes. He lost some of his fingers in when his trailer burned down and, rather than stopping playing, he invented a whole new way of playing guitar whithout those fingers.
